Faster - Better Molds Through RSP Tooling New Research and Advancements [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
The recent developments in rapid production tooling have all but made the need for prototype tooling disappear. There are several approaches that are now as fast and inexpensive as prototype tooling, and after part approval can continue to run in high ...

Dynamic conformal cooling improves injection molding : hybrid molds manufactured by laser powder bed fusion [PDF]

open access: greenThe International Journal of Advanced Manufacturing Technology, 2020
AbstractTo achieve a certain visual quality or acceptable surface appearance in injection-molded components, a higher mold surface temperature is needed. In order to achieve this, injection molds can be dynamically tempered by integrating an active heating and cooling process inside the mold halves.

Case Study to Illustrate the Potential of Conformal Cooling Channels for Hot Stamping Dies Manufactured Using Hybrid Process of Laser Metal Deposition (LMD) and Milling

open access: yesMetals, 2018
Hot stamping dies include cooling channels to treat the formed sheet. The optimum cooling channels of dies and molds should adapt to the shape and surface of the dies, so that a homogeneous temperature distribution and cooling are guaranteed ...
